About This Quiz

Put on your dress robes and get ready for this quiz! Harry Potter is way more than a cult classic. It pretty much defined a generation and continues to do so as each new generation is introduced to it.

You most certainly have your favorite character based on their Hogwarts house, and how good they are. But do you ever think about which dark character fits with you as well?
